Here are a couple of pics of the two things I made for our mini thanksgiving I hosted with the in laws.

This is my first homemade pumpkin pie that I made using evaporated goat milk (found it at Walmart!). My son has a cow's milk allergy and I am lactose intolerant so this is quite the treat. It came out wonderful, I have noticed a slight goaty aftertaste, but hell..it's the first pumpkin pie I've had in almost 10 years.

These are the best things ever! This is my grandma's recipe for Buckeye Balls (pb and chocolate) and they are so yummy...my husband loves them. I think we have one left in the fridge..hah!

As for everything else I made, I didn't take pics..silly me. I did make my first turkey (a frozen marval 13 pounder) with the usual trimmings. The turkey was yummy, very moist. I brined it for 6 hours so hopefully that was the answer..I dunno. Hope you all a wonderful Thanksgiving! Time to gear up for Christmas now!
